Make SURE you have a SELL in on your stock at 51.53 or higher. If there is a SELL on your stock it cannot be borrowed to be shorted.
Your broker can lend your stock out WITHOUT checking with you, if you have a MARGIN account.
My "good till canceled" sell order EXPIRED today -- some brokers make you renew them every few months.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A SELL ORDER IN TO KEEP YOUR STOCK FROM BEING BORROWED BY SHORTERS.
